Episode 121
In this episode pastor Raef digs into a historic theological question around the relationship of ethnic Israel and the Church. While there are theological roots to the question, the various answers Christians have developed over the years have very practical applications and implications. Raef argues from an Amillennial perspective, that the Church is the New Israel, not the replacement of Israel as some have said, but the New or Fulfilled Israel.
